Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended

اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ :فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ اَلسُّورَةَ فَيَقْرَأُ غَيْرَهَا فَقَالَ« لَهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ مَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ ثُلُثَيْهَا»
Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr from Abdullah ibn Bukayr from Ubayd ibn Zurarah: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, (was asked) regarding a man who intends to recite a Surah but then recites another one instead. Imam عليه السلام said: "He is allowed to return (to the intended Surah) as long as he has not recited two-thirds of it."
